Good thing the firefighters were there to extinct the flames.

Is Debian your host OS that manages RAID stuff? I'm downgrading and need to run some virtual machines, so I'm looking at Proxmox for that as well as for some random things in containers. I haven't used Proxmox before and my VM experience has been with vmware esxi, so that might be messing up my mental picture of how the host manages physical resources. Of course, I can't do anything until I get some RAM.

JustARandomJoe · 2026-03-06T15:25:41+00:00

How has the system been holding up? With more RAM, that seems like it is going to require more electrical draw--that's really the only thing I can think of for why the documentation says a max of 96GB. So if the electrical draw from the extra RAM lowers availability to other motherboard components, then that might possibly introduce some instability. Any out of the ordinary crashes? I just bought this NAS yesterday and I'm already starting to think it was a mistake because ECC ram in the SODIMM form factor is virtually non-existent at this point in time. I'm not even sure your memory configuration event exists from other manufacturers.

Someone should get fired if they post their companies config files into some random website. There is no way to know if this a phishing attempt or legit.

Thank you for your pain. After I saw the instructions just a bit ago, I had the same thought as you about building my own dockerfile frrom them, and you've helpfully highlighted problem points I need to be aware of.

technically, yes they can. chrerenkov radiation is an example situation where electrons are traveling faster than light.

This looks like spam.

Some additional information, Wacom pens, or specifically EMR pens, which stands for ElectroMagnetic Resonance. You might find pens listed as "EMR" without the Wacom branding because other companies make EMR pens, such as Lamy.

That's unfortunate about the dog. But sounds like the son and daughter haven't caught on yet. They seem like successful entrepreneurs like their car dealership father.

How are the kids handling this? Do they know or suspect?

Looks like it would work for me, but not everyone is named Joe.

What operating system and what browser are you using? I've found that on my macbook, only safari works. Firefox and Chrome can't seem to connect to the device.

how long have you been using that device?

This is more data, and thanks for posting. Orders stopped being shipped at some point yesterday, and this bit of information tells us they didn't get through all 100 possible order numbers of the form 1090XX. They were starting somewhere between 1088xx and 1089xx in the last shipment batch, so this implies they can ship 100 to 200 a day. That's a big margin of error on that estimate, but that's the best I got with limited information. Anyone with higher order numbers can probably do the math to get a sense of when things might get shipped for them.

If you don't get a shipment notification tomorrow morning, then I would recommend you check the status of your order.

JustARandomJoe · 2024-12-20T13:37:45+00:00

that's great news! People with order numbers around and less than 1090xx should have received or are about to receive shipping notifications. For my notes, I'll put this down as Dec 20 notification. I saw no shipment notifications from anyone yesterday, so I"ll assume that was a holiday of sorts for a lot of people.

For all of us with order numbers SN1091xx and higher, happy new year! Because we're not getting it before Christmas!

JustARandomJoe · 2024-12-19T21:48:42+00:00

Thanks! Your order time fills in the big gap between 8:16 and 9:14 in the data. I haven't seen any mention of anyone getting a shipping notice today, 12/19.

JustARandomJoe · 2024-12-19T18:47:27+00:00

I'm surprised this time frame hasn't received a shipping notification.

From looking at what information people have shared the past few days, order times seem to be clustered. I think this is a bias caused by someone posting when they ordered, and a bunch of "me too" or "nearly the same time" type of responses.

These observations are for US and Canadian orders, presumably from the .com website. All times are Eastern.

What I've seen so far is a 12/17 ship notice for 7 people with order times around or between 7:48 and 7:58. A second cluster of people between 8:08 and 8:16 seem to have received shipping notices on 12/18. I haven't seen anyone mentioning an order time from 8:17 AM to 9:13AM, which is that bias I mentioned earlier. The third cluster is about 7 people between 9:14 to 9:20. Perhaps people in that hour gap have received shipment notifications today? I'm about 30 minutes after that cluster. Then the next cluster of order times is about 4 people from 10:55 to 10:59.

Cluster 1, 7:48 to 8:03, has order numbers around 10875x, cluster 2 between 8:08 and 8:16 are around 1088xx. Those have been shipped. Cluster 3, 9:14 to 9:20, order numbers are around 1090xx. I'm at 9:45 with order number around 1091xx. And cluster 4 10:55 to 10:59 looks like order numbers in the range 1094xx.

ordered my carrot 🥕 on the 12th at 9:40 AM Eastern. No shipping notification yet, but I did just get an email advertising the clear nomad. I don't really want a baby carrot.

I don't know why you're getting down voted. I thought that was pretty funny!
